Hard to do...

These two layouts were some of the hardest ones I have ever done. In memory of my brother, Thad: This is a picture of my brother, Thad. I don't have very many photos of him especially in the last part of his life. I really love this photo though and cherish it. Thad chose to end his life after a battle with addiction and it has been one of the most difficult challenges of my life. 21 years later I still struggle with the many questions that are in my heart. Suicide is the hardest thing for a family to live through. I will always love my brother and remember him before the addiction started but I will never forget the hurt and pain that so many of us still deal with. I love you Thad.

This page is chaotic and emotional as it is that way in my heart and mind. I did two different pages to express the feelings that I feel due to his suicide. I miss him still and struggle with his decision even though it has been 21 years.
